Ego Plum Biography

Ego Plum is one of the most popular and richest Composer who was born on February 27, 1975 in Los Angeles, California, United States. Ego Plum (born February 27, 1975) is an American film composer. He is best known for his work on SpongeBob SquarePants for several episodes, The Ghastly Love of Johnny X, and Harvey Beaks.

Over the course of his career, Ego Plum has collaborated with many independent and high-profile musicians and composers. Among one of his more prolific partnerships has been with David J, bassist for the gothic rock bands Bauhaus and Love and Rockets. In 2007, J was hired to score independent filmmaker Ramzi Abed’ s Black Dahlia-inspired feature The Devil’s Muse when Abed introduced him to Plum’s demos after Plum expressed to Abed a desire to help work on the film. According to J, he was “enormously impressed” by Plum’s music: “All lush film noir atmospherics, Rotaesque strings and what sounded like the fever dreams of Raymond Scott. I had a partner in crime!”. After working together on The Devil’s Muse, Plum subsequently co-composed and performed on several musical projects with J, including the 2006 re-release and re-recording of J’s album V for Vendetta and his 2011 stage play The Chanteuse and the Devil’s Muse and its soundtrack accompaniment.

In 2009, Plum engineered and recorded drums and keyboards for the David J-produced Petits Fours, the debut album from Grand Duchy, a project fronted by Black Francis of the Pixies. In December of that year, Plum accompanied J for a five-song set with Black Francis as part of an all-star benefit show at the Echoplex in Los Angeles, performing guitar, banjo and ukulele on covers of John Lennon’ s “Jealous Guy”, Daniel Johnston’ s “Some Things Last a Long Time”, the Pixies’ “Monkey Gone to Heaven”, “In Heaven” from Eraserhead and Mott the Hoople’ s “All the Young Dudes”.

Plum made his debut composing for the stage in 2009 with The Gogol Project, an original adaptation of three short stories by Nikolai Gogol created by the Rogue Artists Ensemble. The Gogol Project opened at the Bootleg Theater in Westlake to critical acclaim, winning Plum a 2009/2010 Ovation Award for Music Composition for a Play. Plum subsequently scored A Noise Within’ s 2012 adaptation of Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol and partnered with the Rogues again writing original songs and music for their 2013 production of Pinocchio.

Plum befriended artist and Marilyn Manson co-founder Gidget Gein in the early 2000s, eventually composing original music for Gein’s 2004 “Gollywood” art and fashion shows for his Use Once and Destroy Couture fashion line. Following Gein’s death in 2008, Plum digitally released these compositions as a soundtrack album, also featuring snippets of an in-studio jam between Plum and Gein.

After making the rounds as a drummer in the Los Angeles punk scene, Plum’s first break came in 1996 when he contributed several songs to the soundtrack of Blood Slaves of the Vampire Wolf, a no-budget independent horror film directed by Ed Wood regular Conrad Brooks. The following year, Plum self- released his debut album Anthology of Infection, Vol. 1, a compilation of instrumental pieces written and recorded between 1990 and 1997, establishing a website promoting his music and offering his composing services to amateur filmmakers. A second compilation of newer instrumental material, Anthology of Infection, Vol. 2, was released in January 2000 to positive reviews, with Razorcake calling it “simply amazing” and Style Weekly praising Plum as “truly adept at songwriting”.

In 1998, Plum began assembling the Ebola Music Orchestra, a ten-piece ensemble including a horn section, strings and accordions as the means of performing songs from Anthology of Infection in a concert setting, with Plum serving as the musical director as well as switching off between guitar, keyboards, xylophone and various unique instruments. The original incarnations of the Ebola Music Orchestra featured numerous performers with physical deformities. “I am equally fascinated by people who are different but not because they are shocking or weird, but because they are beautiful”, Plum explained, “I love talented people who embrace the things that make them different from the rest of the world”. At one point, the orchestra was to be featured on the 2000 NBC revival of the human interest series You Asked For It, but NBC executives quickly pulled the plug on the segment out of concern it would be too controversial for prime time television (Plum speculated that it was “Gerome, the legless thalidomide-baby breakdancer” which broke the deal). Over time the group became less conceptual and more of a rock-oriented ensemble of Plum’s “most talented friends performing the imaginary cartoon soundtracks I had in my head”. The Ebola Music Orchestra released their debut album The Rat King in

2007. Critical response to the album was largely positive, including “highly recommended” praise from BlogCritics, which succinctly concluded their review with “[Ego Plum]’s got skillz”.

Plum made his first foray into television in 2008 when he was hired to score the Nickelodeon series Making Fiends, composing original material in addition to working with songs written by series creator Amy Winfrey. According to the show’s production blog, Plum took a unique approach to scoring Making Fiends, frequently using toy instruments which were sometimes deliberately left out of tune and incorporating unusual sounds such as dripping water and goat bleats to give the score “an off-kilter, childlike quality”. Although Making Fiends was cancelled after one season, the series spawned an enduring cult following and Plum continued a working relationship with Nickelodeon: in 2009, he was asked to compose the theme song to Planet Sheen, a spin-off of the hit series The Adventures of Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius. Plum was ultimately not selected to score the series, though has since posted his original demos online.
